Databricks Lakehouse Platform
What do you like best about the product?
It brings a lot of things together under one area to simplify operations in data engineering and data science. Databricks has enabled me to learn a lot of various topics in data engineering and data science because of their great training modules. The scalability of the Databricks Lakehouse is also very attractive. DLT Pipelines are also a great tool for ETL that I have loved using.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Databricks Lakehouse is very expensive, although I find it to be largely worth it for our situation because our team and company can utilize all of the tools they offer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using DTL for a declarative approach to DLT has been very convenient and efficient for our Data Engineering processes. Running machine learning models in Databricks spark clusters grants efficient use of compute and faster model training times.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The primary problem that Databricks Lakehouse Platform is solving is storing and processing big data. With its support of a wide variety of languages like Python, Scala, Sql etc it becomes mighty and helpful to process data. Role-based access management is a blessing for data governance.
Databricks is the heart of our IAplatform which allows experimentation and industrialization
What do you like best about the product?
We have been using Azure data bricks for over three years. The evolution of data bricks is impressive, as well as its stability. When our users (data engineer, data scientist) want a new feature, it very often happens that within a week or three months, this feature is developed by the Databricks team. Magic
What do you dislike about the product?
As a user, if you want to keep pace with the new features and capacity of the platform, you have to stop sleeping :) And yet the documentation is abundant, and the media is of good quality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sentiment detection use cases, anomaly/fraud detection, risky customer detection. By associating it with cognitive services, identity document recognition use cases, kyc.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly, I use this tool to create Data Pipelines using Apache Spark. And it also gives us the capability to connect Databricks to Tableau for Data Visualisation directly.
Best all-in-one Data Platform environment
What do you like best about the product?
By providing a fully-managed, highly performant and customizable Spark environment along with regular top-tier productivity features, Databricks is undeniably the most complete Data Platform in the market. My favorites features would be :
* Unity Catalog that provides colum-level lineage and a centralized access right management service
* Delta Live Table that provides easy to implement Data Quality control and monitoring
* Extensive CLIs that gives freedom in chosing your CI/CD platform
* Clusters policies that allows a better cost control

What do you dislike about the product?
The offline development can be improved. The recently release of a VsCode Extension and also Spark connect are steps towards this but still needs more features to be satisfying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Databricks helps us develop and deploy Data Products and train Machine Learning models more successfully in production, in very short amount of time, a secured environment and with controlled costs management.
Its compatibility with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform also allows us to easily reproduce our standards accross multiple instances.
The integration with Azure Active Directory also eases the adoption and Access Control of resources and data assets.
